Playground Supervision

At Sacred Heart Primary School, student safety is a priority. We provide teacher supervision in outdoor play areas during school hours and before and after school to ensure our students’ safety.

Teacher supervision

Before school, 8.15am-8.45am:

- one teacher on the lower playground (basketball court) - one teacher on the decking - one teacher at the crossing in the east car park - one teacher at the car park express drop-off zone

After school, 3.15pm-3.30pm:

- two teachers meet children at a designated area to walk them safely around the car and down Monastry Drive. - one teacher at the crossing in the east (main school entrance) car park - two teachers at the car park express pick-up zone

Recess/lunch break 10.55am-11.30am/1.40pm-2.15pm

- one teacher on the lower playground (basketball court) - one teacher on the decking - one teacher on upper playground (oval)

To ensure students’ wellbeing, on wet days or days of extreme heat, students are supervised indoors or under shelter.

We ask that students remain in the designated play areas before school, during recess and lunchtime.

During break times and before and after school, students are not permitted to be inside school buildings unless there is a teacher close by to supervise.

During school hours, the cemetery behind the white house and the area around the hall are out of bounds.
